Well done Scratchie, a good feed there and not a mention of any F.A.Gs....I haven't wet a line since Darwin
-
Hey Dom, Nice fish and congrats !!! Did the improvement to the boat ramp fix the problem with the surging ? Cheers, GUDude
-
Wanna fish it next year ?
-
Good luck Ray, hope you catch a horse...

G'Day Poacher, Yes, you can easily launch a 6 meter boat from the Wooli ramp. Then access to the ocean via the bar, as Dicko said it can get really messy and there have been a few boats lost so watch the weather. Cheers, GUDude

Nice boat and a very nice fishing location ! How did you go towing from Cairns to Gove ? Did you go via the Savannah Way ? Cheers, GUDude

I usually burley up with a tin of creamed corn, then use corn kernels or worms as bait. The small squigys ~50mm also work well. cheers, GUDude

Great video ... its like I was there. Top water fishing for Barra has gotta be one of the best ways ... Cheers, GUDude
-
Very nice fish, but its a nile perch ... close cousin to the Barra I think. Cheers, GUDude

G'day Geoff, Did they mention if they are going to put up a podcast of the show ??? Cheers, GUDude

G'day Jim, I believe the PCD of the 6 stud Patrol is the same as the 80 series, the difference which stops the swapping of rims, between vehicles, is the lug diameter. When using them for trailers I think this doesn't matter, anyone please correct me is I'm wrong. So is there such a thing as a six stud 10 inch hub disc combination ? I can't go the 12 inch version as then I'll have to also replace the brake mounting plate on the axle. Cheers, GUdude
-
G'day Raiders, I want to replace the boat trailer 5 stud disc/hubs with 6 stud disc/hubs so I can use larger 16 inch patrol rims. From my research/enquiries on the www it looks like the 6 stud version only come with a 12" disc. Does anyone know if there is a 10" version of the 6 stud/hub ? Cheers, GUDude

Champions ! What a great read, Well done. Cheers, Gudude

G'Day Matty, I have fished for them on the Abbercrombie river using small plastics ~50mm and the small hardbodies in the rainbow trout colour. They get real hungry when stuck in pools as the river dries up, great fun on light spin gear. Cheers, GUDude

Excellent adventure ! slinkymalinky Nice 'toga, thats one fish high on my "to catch" list. Cheers, GUDude
-
Excellent report ! I hope to do a trip like that some day. Were you using one of the houseboats as your home base ? Cant wait to see the pictures. Cheers, GUDude

Love it ... flat out down some of those NT creeks was the way to go. I remember going to the Rookery in a big AMM marine boat, the only way to get in/out was to get up on a plane and some of the best fishing came from those skinny creeks. Would be great to see more pics, post 'em up. Cheers, GUDude

G'day Cephalopod, You dont really have to spend serious money. I have used the Shimano Curado and Daiwa HRF both are good reels. Cheers, GUDude
-
I'll second the improved albright for braid to leader and then a perfection loop for the lure, I havent had this combination fail me yet. If you want I can pm you a link to a short video on how to tie both. Cheers, GUDude

Nice fish, are my eyes playing tricks or is there two lip grips in that barras gob ?
-
Jonno, There are big stainless fishing pliers that have a hook eye opener, basically a conical spike that spreads the eye as you close the pliers on them, mine has 3 different sizes. Also handy for pulling the hooks from fish with sharp teeth or if you dont want a treble in you finger when the fish is still a bit green. Cheers, GUDude

Nice fish Ray, Its been a while since I've fished Avoca rocks. Those pics bring back good memories. You should try floating out a livie or whole pilly under a balloon when the wind blows away from the rocks. Cheers, GUDude
